Château du Seuil Organic, Cérons

The tiny appellation of Cérons borders the northern side of Sauternes and benefits from autumnal mists, which encourage the development of Botrytis. Made using the same labour-intensive methods as Sauternes, with individual grape selection from the bunches, followed by a partial vinification in French oak barrels. The result is a rich, luscious wine with a pronounced honeyed bouquet and fresh, citrus flavours.

Expression

Luscious, rich, sticky, sweet wines

Great with cheese, particularly blue cheeses like Roquefort, an example of salt and sweet working together brilliantly.

Will partner with fruit-based dishes if the acidity levels balance. Fantastic with pastries, rich cakes and desserts demonstrating similarly high levels of sweetness.

The Country

France

Most of France enjoyed a long, glorious warm summer, which set wineries up for a great 2018 vintage. A welcome relief from the previous one which was the smallest since World War II.
